Takeshima

Takeshima Islands have been illegally occupied by South Korea since 1953. Some Japanese fishermen were killed by South Korean military forces at that time.

The islands belong to Okinoshima Cho, Shimane prefecture of Japan. An old fisherman who lives in Okinoshima Cho has a fishing right of sea lions there. He is the last fisherman who has the right and he is very old now. Could he go to the islands again?
